With summer approaching, Ellie Avery’s schedule is ruled
by attending end-of-the-year events at her kids’ school—and
avoiding run-ins with her arch competitor. When a murder
disrupts the core curriculum, can the two women form an
alliance to teach the killer a lesson in justice?
As a regular volunteer at North Dawkins Elementary, Ellie
would never miss the annual Mother's Day breakfast—even if
she has to tolerate the likes of Gabrielle Matheson. The
rivals aren't exactly sworn enemies, although Ellie still
thinks there's only room for one professional organizer in
their small Georgia town.
But when Ellie sees Gabrielle in the hallway, she’s a mess.
It looks like Gabrielle’s seen a ghost—or, as she explains,
a dead body inside the supply closet. Before Ellie can get
help the body vanishes . . . only to mysteriously reappear
later at the school.
Little is known about the victim, a secretive snoop with a
nosy nature and a penchant for keeping quiet about her own
past. Ellie will leave no desk unturned to protect her kids
and expose the cunning criminal’s identity. Because if she
doesn’t, the killer may chalk up another textbook case of
murder . . .
